    gravel vac or not?

    The question may sound weird but I have purposely been neglecting my partially planted shrimp tank. The shrimp are currently thriving, but there are a lot of detritus on the bottom that the shrimp occasionally take a nibble at. Also, the tank is covered in algae, which is exactly what I want...

    Lava rock questions

    I would say return the lava rock and switch to sand, because the lava rock is pretty coarse and cichlids love to "gurgle" sand which helps their digestion. On the other hand however, with lava rock, you want to be careful and look out for any injuries the cichlids may have inflicted upon...

    Lights/Stock?

    When LFS stock tanks that are labeled yellow labs, all the fish in it with the yellow labs are compatible right? Also, can the electric blue in it? How many 1-2 inch African cichlids should go in a 30 gallon for about a year?

    Best cichlid setup

    If I took the fish that can't use it, out of the tank. What fish could I put in then? Could I do an all yellow lab tank? I'm thinking about buying another tank just for them?. Will yellow labs use the cichlid stones? Also, how do I tell the difference between Africans and other cichlids

    Best cichlid setup

    Well it's too late since I can't return it, should I still put it in the tank? How easy could it be to change to an African cichlid tank?
